Here's an easy alternative to the Heavy Gauss Cannon upgrade kit. If you have a Tomb Blade kit and the gauss guns, take one gun, and slice off the prongs for the gun end. Take another gun, cut it right where the barrel starts, cut off the prongs for the gun end, and glue it to the end of the first gun. Take a third gun, cut it right where the barrel starts, glue it to the end of the second gun, then glue on one of the gun caps. Clip off the tubing. I imagine other gauss cannons, like the Immortals, would work to, but the Tomb Blade gun socket fits the ball of the Destroyer's arm perfectly.

Looks great but, the 360 controller with the Advil says a lot. LOL

What's the Two-Headed Destroyer Lord holding?

It's a human head from the Ork Boys sprue. I tried to make it look as though a Res Orb had been stuffed in there. This is a bad picture from my wife's phone. I make no claims at painting proficiency, but it looks alot better in person.

I wasn't knocking it. Just trying to figure out what it was.

The heavy destroyer conversion looks good. Much better than th original bent metal crap (are the new ones finecast? mine are all old...)
